  • PRIVATE HOUSING MURSHID 2014 Brief on Real Estate Union

    PRIVATE HOUSING MURSHID 2014 Brief on Real Estate Union

    PRIVATE HOUSING MURSHID 2014 Brief on Real Estate Union Real Estate Association was established in 1990 by a distinguished group headed by late Sheikh Nasser Saud Al-Sabah who exerted a lot of efforts to establish the Association. Bright visionary objectives were the motives to establish the Association. The Association works to sustainably fulfil these objectives through institutional mechanisms, which provide the essential guidelines and controls. The Association seeks to act as an umbrella gathering the real estate owners and represent their common interests in the business community, overseeing the rights of the real estate professionals and further playing a prominent role in developing the real estate sector to be a major and influential player in the economic decision-making in Kuwait. The Association also offers advisory services that improve the real estate market in Kuwait and enhance the safety of the real estate investments, which result in increasing the market attractiveness for more investment. The Association considers as a priority keeping the investment interests of its members and increase the membership base to include all owners segments of the commercial and investment real estate. Summary Private housing segment is the single most important segment of real estate industry in Kuwait. The land parcels zoned for private housing account for 78% of all land parcels in Kuwait and the segment is the main source of wealth (as family houses) for most of the households. This report is written with an objective to provide a comprehensive analysis of this segment with the historical trends of prices, rental activities, and impact of land features on property prices.
  • Impacts of Submarine Groundwater Discharge on Kuwait Bay

    Impacts of Submarine Groundwater Discharge on Kuwait Bay

    Water Pollution XII 165 Impacts of submarine groundwater discharge on Kuwait Bay M. Al-Senafy & A. Fadlelmawla Water Research Center, Kuwait Institute for Scientific Research, Kuwait Abstract The flow of groundwater into the sea, which is known as submarine groundwater discharge (SGD), is an important phenomenon that takes place at the interface between inland groundwater and the sea. The importance of this phenomenon arises from its proven impact on the chemistry of coastal waters. In efforts to support sound management of Kuwait bay, this study was carried out to obtain knowledge on one of the significant elements of the nutritional budget of the bay, that is, the SGD. The study adopted the use of naturally occurring radium isotopes as tracers to quantify the SGD to the bay. A total of 12 sampling campaigns were conducted resulting in the collection of 176 seawater samples. These samples were collected for oceanographic characterization of the bay water, determination of radium content, and determination of trace elements content as ancillary information. Two groundwater sampling campaigns were conducted resulting in collecting 48 radium samples, 45 major elements samples and 23 trace elements samples. Signs for SGD impacts on the characteristics of the bay were examined by looking into temporal and spatial correlations between 226Ra activities and bay water characteristics. Overall, temperature, nitrate and chlorophyll-a showed temporal and spatial trend similar to radium. It is recommended to conduct an overall budgeting of the bay’s nutritional and elemental inputs and outputs in order to reduce the impacts of SGD. Keywords: radium, Arabian Gulf, nutritional budget, sea.

Crawford ________________________________ Dr. Majid Hannoum ________________________________ Dr. Deborah Smith ________________________________ Dr. Bartholomew C. Dean ________________________________ Dr. John Kelly Date Defended: May 28, 2013 The Dissertation Committee for Jasem Bader Theyab certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: The Genetic Structure of the Kuwaiti and Failaka Island Populations: Y-chromosome & Mitochondrial DNA Variation ________________________________ Chairperson, Dr. Michael H. Crawford Date approved: May 31, 2013 ii Abstract Recent studies applying multidisciplinary approaches suggest that the Anatomically Modern Homo sapiens (AMHS) passed through the Arabian Peninsula in their major diaspora out of Africa. The Arabian Peninsula is connected to three continents: Africa, Asia, and Europe. In addition to the major diaspora, the Arabian Peninsula has witnessed numerous migrations among the three continents. The populations of the Arabian Peninsula have been investigated to better understand their evolutionary history. This dissertation investigated the paternal genetic structure of the Kuwaiti and Failaka Island populations using 15 loci Y-STR data. In addition, the maternal genetic structure of Failaka Island has been investigated using mtDNA HVS-I sequence data. This is the first genetic study to characterize Failaka Island population. The result showed that the Kuwaiti population has a high frequency of Y- haplogroup J1 (37%) similar to other Arabian populations.
